American Muscle Retro Billet Grill

Installed the Retro Black Billet grill from American Muscle today. Previous reviews of this product are all spot on. Excellent quality, poor instructions. I winged it, no issues. Looks just like the Roush grill which is way cool since its $70 cheaper. The lower roush grill will be the next purchase. I had also purchased a tri-bar pony emblem off Ebay. American Muscle was sold out. But it doesnt fit. Such a shame really. I was going to put it in the middle of the grill but I wouldnt be able to center it vertically in the grill and was worried it would look funny. So Im going to buy the one from AM when they get them back in stock and I may find a way to integrate this into my CDC Blackout panel. May make a nice look to breakup the black and match the front. What do yall think? The emblem is just over 4 inches tall.

Love the new grill.

Too bad the pony emblem doesn't fit. I am sure you can find one that will.

I got the emblem installed! Its not cetered vertically but I think I can live with it. The emblem is a little bigger than the one from AM. Also the colors are a little darker. I like this one better. Im posting the link just in case anyone wants to get one.

The one I got was cheaper than this but its identical to this.

Well I scored the Roush lower grill off craigslist and installed it. Wow, now I'm loving this whole Roush front end setup.

Looks Great! Iam still searching for the perfect tri-bar pony emblem for my Roush grille. (I also have the Roush front bumper cover.)
